Let's talk meat, folks! If you are planning a special dinner and looking for Standing Bone-in Ribeye Roast Recipe I’ve got you covered! What are some ideas that come to mind when you think of a "special dinner"? I'm betting steak makes the list for most of you. If that's the case, but that simple steak back in the fridge at the store and go for its upgrade: the grand ribeye roast!
It's a wonderfully flavorful and very tender cut that is not much more difficult to prepare than steaks are. This is quite an easy roast to make, so don't let it intimidate you and read on.
A good Ribeye roast is a very popular cut to buy even if it's a little on the pricey side because the ribeye cut is one of the most marbled cuts there is. This makes it one of the most amazingly juicy, super soft, and delicious pieces of meat in the steak family you can enjoy. And hey, if you want to splurge a little during a non-holiday season and enjoy a fantastic meal with your family, why not?
My family and I love to enjoy a fancy meal every once in a while and this roast definitely hits the spot. We do prefer the meat of any kind well-done, so the cooking instruction varies depending on your liking (see roasting instruction below). So, if you need a perfect bone-in rib roast ultra-simple recipe, don't miss out on this one. Enjoy!

How to Make Bone-in Ribeye Roast
Rinse the beef roast and pat dry with a paper towel (optional, my preference is as clean as possible).
Make the rub: measure out the spices, mix them together, and season roast generously and evenly with seasoning rub.
Place the roast into a gallon size Ziploc bag and refrigerate it to marinate for 8 to 12 hours.
♨️ Roasting Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450 F (232 C). Line a deep roasting pan (I use a turkey roaster) with aluminum foil. (Optional tip for easy cleanup.) Place the roast bone side down onto the pan rack.
⏲️ Roasting Time
Sear the roast for 15 minutes to brown. Reduce the temperature to 300 F (150 C) and roast for:
- Rare Done – 3 hours or 125 F (52 C) – shown in the cover picture for contrast
- Medium Done – 3.75 hours or 145 F (63 C)
- Well Done - 4.5 hours or 175 F (79 C) - my family's preference.
I placed the roast back in the oven after photo shooting until it got to the well-done stage we love. 😀
Transfer the roast to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil and allow it to rest for 20 - 30 mintes. 😉
Slice the roast first across the grain, then however you prefer. Enjoy! 😉
Serve Ribeye Roast with mashed potatoes, salad of your choice, and dinner rolls.

For Well done do we cook for 4.5 hours at 300F?
Valya of Valya's Taste of Home says
Yes, that is correct. Roast it for 4.5 hours at 300 F or until the thermometer reads 175 F 79 (C).
Lesley Kirsch says
Great,easy to follow instructions. My family was impressed! Especially like the reminder, from the recipe, to roast briefly, at a higher temperature. Keeps those juices inside and the outcome was melt in your mouth delicious!
Valya of Valya's Taste of Home says
I'm so happy to hear that your family enjoyed the recipe! Thank you for an amazing review! 🙂
Kristina says
Yes that helps! (As far as the question about soaking the meat I was referring to your instructions in number 1: “Soak, rinse the beef roast and pat dry”) 🙂
-What if the roast is almost 10 lbs instead of 7 lbs? Have you ever tried roasting meat that size for this recipe? Approximately how much time do you think it would take for well done meat for 10 lbs? Thanks!
Valya of Valya's Taste of Home says
Oh, I see what you mean... for about 20 to 30 minutes. Change the water after about the first 15 minutes. 10 lbs would take about 5 to 5.5 hours to get the well-done roasting stage. I would also increase additional seasoning by 1/4 of the original amount. Let me know how it turns out for you.
Kristina says
Hello, first off thank you very much for all the great recipes that you post. You are very creative and talented, keep up the good work!!! I just found out that Costco got this meat in for the holidays today. It wasn’t in stock before. -Two questions about this recipe: 1. How long does the meat need to be soaked when it’s raw? 2. How long does the meat need to rest on the cutting board wrapped in foil? Thank-you!
Valya of Valya's Taste of Home says
Awe... thank you for the warm words of encouragement! That means a lot to me! Marinade the meat anywhere from 8 to 12 hours in the fridge (refer to instructions, step 2). Then let the roasted meat to rest for 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. I hope this helps.

Mmmmmm! Looks yummy. Steak is one of our favorite meats. Where do you usually buy that chunk of rib eye steak with bone?

Costco sells them or at our local butcher.
